As a breeder of diseases, there are few
things that excel the average farm-hou,c
cellar. 1t underlies the whole house
with nothing to prevent its cNhalalionS
rising into the upper rooms except thin
board floor In the cellar all manner of
things for family use are kept the season
round. Meat, vegetables, milk, butter
bread, pastry, preserves, pickles, and
fruit are here stored in their various re
ceptacles. There is very seldom anything
to separate the fruit and vegetables from
the other parts of the cellar and there is
usually more or less decaying vegetable
matter to load the air with poisonous
germs. At various seasons of the ycar
the cellar walls collect dampness, or
small pools of water lie under their loose
board floors. sending up malarious odors
into the rooms above.

Chicago Suburbs Flooded
A LAKE FORMED BY THE MELTING SNOW AND 6HvERA
TOWNS PARTIALLY SUBMERGED.

CHICAGO, Feb. 16.-When the snow melted so ra-
pidly last week the water from towns along the
Illinois Central railroad, following the natural
slope OF the country, flowed eastward and lodged
in the district bounded by Grand Crossing, Stony
Island, Pullman and South Chicago, completely
lnundattng most OF that region ana Transforming
It into Lake. InSOuth Chicago a disastrous Hood
exits, and not a little suffering has been occa-
stoned. A large portion OF the town lying west OF
the Baltimore and Ohio and north OF the Fittsburg
and Fort Wayne tracks Is under water, and seems
likely to remain so for some time TO come. CON-
mercial avenue. which Is the principal through
fare running north and south, Is flooded In places,
and the Easements OF houses on both sides OF the
street are hooded. At the junction OF CONNER
inundated, and temporary bridges have been
erected TO accommodate pedestrians, and on seve-
raj other streets much the same condition OF affairs
exists West OF the exchange and on the northern
limits OF the town, Is what Is known as the Polish
settlement II is there that the worst trouble ex-
lists. All the houses are flooded and the suffering
Is quite severe. Grand Crossing has suffered con-
Stderably nrOm the flood.

Future Of the Signal Service.

TALK WITH THE NEW CHIRF.
Capt. Greely this morning received number OF
kilograms and calls from friends congratulattnp
him upon his selection as chief signal of1icer. It
was only short time ago that his rank was only
that OF lieutenant, and now he is In fair way
to become brigadIer general The jump from a
captaincy to brigadier generalship is something
very unusual.
In answer to the inquiries OF a STAR reporter
this morning Capt. Greely said that he did not re-
gard his nomination or his prospective confrma-
tion as chief signal officer, as affecting in any
way, the project OF transferring the weather
@ bureau to civil branch OF the government.
tha inere was cmef signal oficer he said "before
to remove that part OF the service which has
grown up with 1t, although in no way military in
It's character, there is no reason why the signal
service proper should be affected. While The pro-
Ject Is pending, he said 81 have carefully refrained
from enlisting any more men. On the contrary /
have recently discharged seven who were not
clerks and who were not fit 70 be sent to stations"
Some people think that the transfer project Will
result In compromise; that the body OF the
signal corps will be placed on civilian standing,
with the commissioned officers as they are now.
and the bureau remaining part OF the War de-
constituted.
